OVERNIGHT OATS - Key Ingredients & Benefits
Rolled Oats | A naturally gluten-free grain full of beta-glucan fiber. This soluble fiber can increase satiety, promote regularity, decrease cholesterol and prevent blood sugar spikes after eating.
Chia Seeds | An excellent source of protein and fiber. Chia seeds contain a combination of magnesium and calcium that promotes strong bones and a healthy nervous system.
Coconut Palm Sugar | A low-glycemic, minimally processed sweetener produced from the sap of palm trees. It is rich in potassium, magnesium, zinc and B vitamins.
Ashwagandha | An adaptogenic herb that can help the body manage anxiety, relieve stress, improve sleep quality and reduce blood glucose levels.
Cinnamon | A warming spice with powerful anti-inflammatory properties. Not only does it taste delicious, it also balances blood sugar, boosts immunity and protects brain function.
Raw Cacao | The powdered form of raw cacao beans. Raw cacao is a superfood (not to be confused with cocoa powder, which is highly processed and comparatively low in health benefits). It’s one of the highest sources of magnesium in nature, and it has 4 times the antioxidants of green tea. Raw cacao also triggers the release of endorphins and mood-enhancing neurochemicals in the brain due to a compound called phenethylamine.
Lion’s Mane Mushroom | A white mushroom with a shaggy appearance. It is best known for enhancing immunity and brain function, with compounds that accelerate the growth of brain cells.
Reishi Mushroom | Known as the “mushroom of Immortality,” reishi has many benefits including brain and cognitive support, calming the nervous system, stress relief and boosting immunity.
Inulin | A prebiotic fiber that is most commonly derived from chicory root, although it’s found naturally in many fruits, vegetables and herbs. Prebiotics are essential to our health because they act as food for the good bacteria in our gut microbiome.
